[@havinearlong9055]

And may I just add, it's preposterous how many people think that the ending of part 6, with Emporio beating Pucci is "random, out of nowhere, or forced ". This is actually perfect as an ending for Pucci's character and all of Stone Ocean, fitting the theme of fate and justice perfectly. All throughout the story, fate ensured that Pucci will attain heaven for everyone, making the people know the future of their life, to accept it and live happily. But Pucci, after sensing that he will be defeated by Emporio someday in the future, chose to stop the acceleration process right before he succeeded to go kill Emporio, thus he defied fate, the one thing helping him to win, he wants everyone to accept their fate, but rejected his own fate of death. This is the moment his hypocrisy and evil lay bare, the moment he chose to let go of fate, fate let go of him and made him drop from heaven all the way to hell, The ending of Stone Ocean made a lot of sense, Very Much sense and is close to perfection in conveying the theme, which is to acknowledge your destiny while still not giving up hopes and fight on. It just needed more thinkings to realise how masterfully done and how much symbolism Stone Ocean had and sadly so many people didn't.

[@Crossil]

Note, though, that for the entire time of that chase sequence, Emporio is desperately trying to change fate, by trying to avoid going where Pucci already knows he'll go. At no point in time does he accept fate, but tries to play around it in the end by having Pucci change it for him. So what exactly is "fate" then, in JBA? Honestly, a similar event occurred elsewhere. Kira Yoshikage lost only because Hayato decided to defy fate dictated by Bites the Dust, at which he succeeded when Kira stated who he is to Josuke who himself wasn't late to the meetup, defying fate as a butterfly effect from Hayato defying fate. And Kira stating who he is isn't an attempt to change fate by Kira, but rather doing the same thing he did as dictated by fate before. Kira's fate was changed by another's hand trying to cheat fate, not his own. But here's the thing. Why wasn't it Emporio's fate that was changed? Kira's was changed because Hayato worked to change it, but Emporio's fate wasn't changed when Pucci tried to change it. Is there a logic lineup here where there isn't a serial hypocrisy in deciding who fate favors when people try to break away from it?

[@koroo2891]

Unironically as well it was his own blood and flesh weather that fate let him get the last laugh and at the end screwed over pucci

[@TheJalfireKnight]

And the fact the Emporio used the stand of Pucci’s brother makes the whole thing much better.

@@Crossil Kira was manipulating fate with his BTD, same as Pucci with his MIH.

Im so glad someone else loves pt 4’s ending as much as I do. It’s straightforward like pt 3 but still so rich and full of detail and has had so much story leading up to it’s conclusion. I love how the main cast all collectively help defeat kira. It just has such a natural build up of tension and bites The dust was the perfect power up for kira. The ending montage also felt perfectly in place and not cheap at all because of how wide the cast was and the setting of the part. While 6’s ending is my favorite, 4 and 7 are the most rounded out.

[@vashvana]

Also I love the high voltage arc in pt 7, I know some people don’t like it because they feel like it undermines funny Valentine as the main villain but that entire fight was set up by valentine in the first place and shows how dedicated he is to his ideologies, and gives closure to Johnny and Diego. It also gave us one of the most badass moments in all of jojo with Lucy Steele.

[@kritikalKreznik]

Part 6 is just so amazing. Jolyne and her story has stuck with me longer than any other jojo part this far!

[@purplehaze2358]

I wouldn't really call part 5's ending a "power up-based win", because that implies that the requiem was the means through which the protagonists won. Though not an entirely inaccurate way of looking at it, as both the protagonists and main antagonist were seeking the requiem, it'd probably be better to think of it as being the win condition unto itself, rather than the "win" being treated as a separate goal that the requiem provides the means to achieve.

[@arminkir9389]

well you could say that if that was giornos actual goal giorno wanted to be the mafia boss the only way to do that is yknow off some particular person who if he got the reqium arrow giorno could not achieve that goal so yes they are seperate the arrow is just the means of achieving the goal

[@snuffysam]

The issue with “the chase to get the arrow was the real final battle” is that Giorno hardly did anything lol. He didn’t do anything clever to beat Diavolo’s time skip, Polnareff and Trish did that. He didn’t figure out the weakness to Chariot Requiem or make a big sacrifice to beat the villain, Bruno did that. That’s why GER feels like a “Giorno was fated to win” thing like part 2. Yes the power of friendship & teamwork is of course a thing in shonen but like, that was the whole theme of part 4’s ending yet we still got to see Josuke fighting Kira in a top notch battle of wits & ideals. I really can’t say the same for Giorno, his true final fight was vs Cioccolata.

[@ShadowHawk24Real]

​@@Gamfluentwhere did he say that?

[@ilikerainbow.butimnotgay.4835]

I watched your video about Tooru a while ago (the one where you said you started liking him). And I gotta say, it feels good to have someone else also like/love Tooru as a villain. I don’t know why, but it just does.

[@thebitten1]

The moment he started playing (essentially) his own theme song while Yasuho is dying in the background; I knew he got me. Not cause I dislike Yasuho, I'd say she was my favorite character in part 8. But cause Tooru was just built different to do all that; on top of having Wonder of U as a stand

[@MamaneOverealism]

A thing lots of people do know is the fact that when Emporio summon Weather Report, it does the same pose Jolyne did in a chapter cover, showing that a little bit of her soul touched the stand

[@Замок-з3п]

The Requiem Quietly Plays is easily the most misunderstood arc in the series, the perfect final battle for Golden Wind and people only dislike it because it's unconventional. It stays true to Part 5, and a big Part 3-style final fight between Gio and Diavolo would not fit at all. Stardust Crusaders' fights were all about focusing on each character of the cast at a time, giving them development and problems to solve by themselves. As such during the DIO's World arc, each character takes turns at fighting DIO until they can come up with a way to beating him. Golden Wind on the other hand is much more about teamwork, character interaction, dealing with enemy teams and the environment they're in, and thus that's what the final battle is also about. Anything else would feel out of place. People complain that Giorno vs Diavolo was short and underwhelming, but that's because that's not what the fight was supposed to be, that was simply the result of the true fight, of characters working together to retrieve the arrow and kill Diavolo for good. Having another 10 chapters of Giorno and Diavolo going back and forth would heavily undermine Bruno's sacrifice and the team effort made to get to that point, instead giving all the glory of to Giorno, which would simply feel wrong after all the gang has been through.

[@nineteenseventyfive6709]

Omg you get it!! Honestly at this point I’m used to people not getting the part 5 ending but the reasons you listed are exactly the reason why I love the arc so much, and why it stands out to me among the rest of the endings.

With Part 3, the fight with Vanilla Ice onwards more than makes up for the roller coaster of drawn out forgettable moments and exciting moments. It is a tense, action-packed drama where sacrifices are made, an epic and unique battle of wits occurs to stop the ultimate evil, and it resolves itself in a bittersweet manner. While there nitpicks like Jotaro’s shared time-stopping maybe having more explicit foreshadowing rather than the rather Deus ex machina manner it’s brought up, it’s overall an ending I wouldn’t change.

[@FrostbyteFreeman]

Glad to see some love for Stone Ocean's ending here. I absolutely adore how in the original universe, the centuries-long saga of the Joestar family began with a blonde orphaned outcast who was born into a life of crime being ushered into a family where he felt unwelcome (and therefore in turn said orphan feels compelled compelled to take his internalized self-loathing and externalize it by hurting others)... only for the saga to end with that same family taking in ANOTHER blonde orphaned outcast who was born into a life of crime and doing everything conceivable within their power to protect him, cherish him, love him, and show him he is capable of breaking the cycles of generational trauma that have defined their own lives, too. Every step in the chain of sacrifice that composes the back half of Part 6, from Weather to Anasui to Ermes to Jotaro to Jolyne... all that death and destruction, calamity and self -sacrifice and dark determination, it all ends with Emporio- the Sole Survivor, standing against the master plan of the Holy Diver. For Dio, a man who grew up in a prison of generational poverty, Heaven was to know what was ordained- to know that all would be well in the end and that he would emerge triumphant from the prison of his circumstances. But for Emporio, who grew up in a literal prison and only found his first taste of what life could be like outside the stone walls and steel bars of his solitary life through the Joestars, Heaven meant freedom... freedom from cyclical pain, the freedom to fly and fall and make mistakes and live with hope for tomorrow. Even before Araki created Stands, his writing was always focused on the soul- more specifically, on how the living inherit the "fighting spirit," the resolve and intentions of those they love after death- and in pitting Fr. Pucci, the ultimate inheritor of Dio's wrath and agony (another broken boy in his own right) against Emporio, the boy who inherited the Joestar fighting spirit, Araki adds one last little wrinkle of poetic irony and thematic cohesion to the end of Part 6. Because if Emporio ultimately symbolizes everything the Joestars stood for, dating all the way back to Jonathan, and Pucci symbolizes all that Dio came to be, then that only makes Emporio beating Pucci with his brother's Stand that much sweeter. It's both tragic and triumphant all at once. There are some elements of Part 6 that aren't my favorite, but once the narrative reaches the point where our characters are forced to sacrifice themselves one by one so that the rest may live, there's nothing that beats the overwhelming atmosphere of inevitability and dread Made in Heaven creates (a feeling Yugo Kanno captured beautifully in Part 6's dark, desperate-sounding motifs).

[@bahesb2419]

I think the best Jojo Ending is Part 4's ending: First, it made a background Character relevant: the Final arc starts with hayato being stuck in a ground dog day like situation with kira sloweky killing off the Main cast until hayato managed to outsmart him and save everyone. Second, Everyone got a shine on the spotlight: Hayato saves everyone from dying, Josuke wounded kira, Okuyasu saved josuke and jotaro and koichi gave kira the final blow. Everyone feels relevant here and it's nice to see the heroes not win through a new power up but through Teamwork. Third, Kira: Kira during the entire Arc was now more of a threat then before: First he gained a new Ability which allowed him to kill off first rohan and then the ENTIRE Cast! Seeing a villain actually managing to kill off the main cast is both interesting and horrifing. Though thankfully hayato changed that. But even then he Remained a dangerous threat as he almost killed okuyasu and Actually came that close into killing josuke. Then comes his Demise: Instead of dying to the Heroes, kira died to an ambulance. It's a mix of Realisitic, ridiculously funny and poetic: Kira spend his entire life being unoticed and now he died because the ambulance didn't noticed him. And if this isn't better we are shown what happend to him in the afterlife: he get confronted by the first person he killed and get tracked into hell with the things he always loved the most: Hands. Seeing this Guy finally getting the justice he deserved was just Gold. And at last the final Scene: The final scene is so good for me cuz it's shows us one last look into morioh and shows us how all The characters are now living their lives peacefully and how we can all be happy seeing the characters finally living their lives peacefully and happy in Morioh. And that all is why i think part 4's Ending is the best ending overall in the entire series.

Right, who else thought this was going to be about the ending songs 💀

[@brandonfrye2000]

Part 6 is my fav so bitter sweet 😢😅

[@animefan77]

With Part 2- the emotional climax was with Wamuu, the fight with Kars is very drawn out- with unfair schemes that go against the previous characterization of the character and while the revelation of Kara’s ultimate goal is cool and Kars being sent into space iconic- it’s ended too quickly before we wrap up the story in a manner that feels more like getting bullet points down to get to the more important Part 3.

[@ChiefMedicPururu]

That said, the anime did a good job trying to make it more of an ending.

Even after seeing stone ocean’s ending i still think about it even months later. If a piece of fiction is able to stay with you long after viewing it then it’s effective at what it set out to do.

[@gabbsxoxo]

Great video! I think it's also important to mention that part 6's ending is about breaking the curse of fighting evil for the greater good that plagues the Joestar family, allowing them to pursue more personal goals in life and making them able to fight for their own happiness (which creates a more natural transition to part 7 and 8). Johnny Joestar's character isn't about fighting evil for good's sake, but is rather about fighting someone whose ideals differ from his, with his ultimate goal being to walk again; Part 8 Josuke also follows that trend as his goal is to get his memory back. They are alternate versions of characters that were fated to fight something that they shouldn't, and the fact that they have more human goals make them more relatable. None of this would be possible without part 6's universe reset, which makes its ending more satisfying despite being bitter sweet. Keep up the good work man!

[@animefan77]

With Part 5, The Rolling Stones mini arc while it has strong thematic connections to the overall fate themes, it drags on longer than it needed to be and it renders the actual ending more like a cliff note and it feels like the final fight was rushed just so this story could be realized. To be honest, it could’ve been placed much earlier, just to add more tension to the impeding deaths of characters and the final fight with Diavolo could’ve gotten a proper conclusion without feeling rushed- maybe a fan fulfillment of Requiem vs Requiem instead of the wash we got instead.

it's weird that i actually have the exact same list as yours. the only thing i'd change is i'd switch part 3's ending with part 8's ending and it'd be the same. part 3's ending is a bit to basic for my taste, it's a good ending and a good send off to the original trilogy, but i just find part 8's to be far more satisfying. the radio gaga arc is pretty messy and weirdly placed, but oddly enough i think it makes enough sense for me to not be too mad about it. part 8's ending really does do a good job of wrapping up the totally bizarre journey that part 8 is as a whole. too often do people hate on it's ending.

[@kanashimi4356]

8. Part 2 - Fun But Stupid, long and Unsatisfying. 7. Part 5 - Super Unsatisfying. 6. Part 8 - One of the Best Parts with The Worst Final Villain; would be Higher if Tooru wasn't so ass, there weren't so many loose ends and Radio Gaga wasn't just thrown in so unrelated. 5. Part 3 - If JoJo ended here it would be perfectly fine and satisfying. 4. Part 4 - The most complete conclusion with the least loose ends and lingering questions. 3. Part 1 - As someone who went in nearly blind, thinking that Old Joseph was an Aged Jonathon from minor spoiler exposure, this hit me perfectly. 2. Part 7 - High Voltage is perhaps my Favourite Fight in the Series and the Ending going so far beyond the Main Villains Defeat is something I wish was done more. 1. Part 6 - The Perfect Conclusion to the Main Universe as a whole and by far the most emotionally impactful.

[@ms.watakamis947]

Every Jojo ending has me all teary eyed like that one image of that cat

[@aioli4869]

Radio Gaga is a great bonus for part 8 and I hope it gets some sort of follow-up in part 9.

[@user-em7ig3lk7l]

I completely disagree about Rolling Stone in part 5 and to a lesser extent Radio Gaga. I just love the way that arc recontextualizes the entire journey. As an epilogue, it doesn't really feel out of place because the story was over anyway, so that at least doesn't bother me. What Rolling Stone means for fate in Jojo is massive and I love that arc for how it handles it, so for that reason I'd honestly have part 5's ending be one of my top favorites.

[@malcolmy3298]

One thing I noticed about jojos is how araki formats every three parts. The first trilogy focuses on an initial villain and set up in a villain in dio,an exploration on the background powers that allowed dio to come to power(the pillar men), and how part three focuses on a return of the initial problem as dio returns. Part 4,5,6 follows this just not as neatly as part 4 follows the fixing of dios initial villainous effects such as the bow and arrow and the plot about okuyasos dad,part 5 identifies and explores what caused the initial problem this time being the requiem arrow and other arrows in Egypt and part 6 ties up lose ends with pucci being the culimination of dios aftereffects and him being beaten can be viewed as a completion of the original goal in part 4. Parts 7-9 will prolly follow a similar format but instead being concepts of calamity and goodwill or something like that. Unrelated to the original video but it helped me realize it lol😂. Probably some more themes about fate in there too

[@pinthecool1]

The very ending of pt 7 is great, but the final arc, with the whole Valentine battle has some issues. The most concepually important one is that Valentine's power up is useless and doesn't make him more of a threat, as Johnny would need to unlock act 4 anyway, because otherwise Valentine would escape, like he did many times before. The short battle between him and Dio/Cream Starter was more interesting, because they had to fight tactically and think about how to overcome his busted stand ability. Then he becomes even stronger. Then Gyro dies and Johnny understands how to create act 4 and oneshots the guy, but, once again, he would have to unlock act 4 anyways. It would be more interesting if him and Gyro had to fight Valentine together using tactics as well, and only winning through Gyro's sacrifice.

[@swiggydswirl330]

This and the Diego fanservice battle against Johnny is completely unnecessary and ruins the emotional high from the "Break my Heart" chapters. It adds tension and distracts from an otherwise perfect finish to Valentine's demise.

[@pinthecool1]

@@swiggydswirl330 I found Diego's appearance at the end to be okay in concept. Valentine's battle was more of a let down for me. We kinda had the same with Diavolo, but at least he had an amazing duel with Metallica and the whole Silver Chariot chananigans were cool

I'd honestly put the Part 8 ending at the bottom. In a sense it has some parallels with Part 5 ending (fully agree with why you thought it was mid), but by Part 8 Araki has grown so much as an author and the story up until then was so intense that expanding on the philosophical aspect of the takeawat theme in the last segment after such an epic spectacle is like finding a fly in the last spoonful of a soup. (The whole Holly not getting cured and not seeing interaction with the mother whatnot is just an insult). Part 8 is one of the few parts where I think the prologue and middle are top tier but the ending falters.

With Part 7, it is almost perfect- it has a culmination of the main character’s growth, a battle of beliefs, a callback to the Part 3 fight that ends in a manner that doesn’t feel cheated, every loose end wrapped up and the only flaw is that it’s the beginning of a new era of Jojo.

With Part 8, the Radio Gaga is much worse than the already controversial Rolling Stones. In the case of the latter, it at least attempted to tie into the thematic themes and main story in a manner that made sense. Radio Gaga feels more like one of the Rohan one shots randomly shoved it- and if you had no knowledge of Lucy Steel, Toru or Joseph Joestar, you’d be scratching your head as to why it needed to exist. Removing it or at least placing it much earlier would’ve given more potential content to the Wonder of U arc with elaborations in Go Beyond and other potential plot elements that were never given an answer. That said, Gappy’s conclusion to his character arc was well handled. Hopefully, the anime adaptation will have enough time to fix a lot of the issues of the Part.

Good video. I agree fairly well. One piece that erks me on Diamond is unbreakable is that Jotaro gets the final hit and is the final conclusion in the fight. IMO, his part is done and while he can help, him getting the final hit takes away a bit from the characters. Doesn't have to be Josuke, but should have been a part 4 character. Also, a portion that brings Stone Ocean to the top for me is that Emporio beats Pucci with Weather Report, adding a sense to the story about family. It was family that cursed the Joestar bloodline, and through the power of a family member, it is what sets them free.
